Chapter 224: Devil's Mercy
Chapter 224: Devil's Mercy
After flying for an entire day, they finally reached the corner of their continent. Outside the continent, it was just water. The massive ocean had everything on itself. Of course, they didn't stay there for long. Because flying over the ocean was much safer, they decided to fly.
Even though it would cost them a lot stamina. But, the ocean itself was dangerous, filled with dozens of sea monsters. Just in case, they brought a ship with them. They put it inside the spatial ring and continued their journey.
The ocean was truly big and their stamina was constantly dropping especially those old men. They decided to take out the ship and ride it. The ship wasn't too big but enough to settle twenty people.
The old men took control of the ship while Qin and his team just explored the ocean. After all, the ocean was quite big and they haven't seen it before. It was quite a relaxing moment for them. According to the old man, it would take nearly five days with the ship.
So, they decided to fly after resting, After all, it would be much faster that way. So, after restoring their stamina, once again they resumed their flight to another continent.
Next Day,
It was during the hot afternoon. They finally saw the shores of the continent. After reaching the shore, they found no one around which surprised them and in front of them was a huge jungle.
"Old man, you said the people of this continent are constantly invading our continent, right? But, we saw no one on the other side. What's happening here?" Qin asked as he released his spiritual sense. But, he couldn't sense a single person.
"That's the problem. They appear on our shores but we don't see their boats. So, most of the time, we assume their boat got wrecked in the middle. And, I wouldn't understand why they would choose other route when this is the closest route to them." The old man shook his head and answered with the confusion in his eyes.
"Wait, Qin, I can sense some life forms here." Suddenly, Guo Min spoke and his words startled Qin. To make sure if he wasn't wrong, Qin checked once again. But, the results were same. He couldn't sense anyone nearby.
"Did your senses increased?" Qin asked as he was surprised when he couldn't find anyone. He didn't refuse to believe Guo Min after all his senses were pretty strong. So, he tried to make sure if Guo Min's senses have increased or not.
"No, it's not about distance. They are right in front of us or rather I should say they are beneath us." Guo Min said while pointing at the ground which made everyone confused.
"Let me cheek!" Lan Ming said while releasing his spiritual sense and focusing on the ground. But his expression changed after few seconds. He stopped his spiritual sense and spoke "There is definitely something underground."
"Although I can't sense people, my spiritual sense constantly gets reflected."
"Yeah! It shouldn't be possible. They seem to be using some kind of material that reflects the spiritual sense. But, it doesn't reflect towards us rather scattered them which makes the person unable to sense reflection and hence they can't spot the people underground."
"I am using my soul to sense these people and soul power isn't blocked by it. There are a lot of them. I mean hundreds of thousands or even million. And, they seem to passing through sea. Hmm! Now that I expand my soul sense, I can feel them walking underwater." Guo Min explained as he pointed the movement of those people towards their own continent.
Instantly, everyone's expression changed. They obviously understood what was going on here.
"So, what should we do? Are we going underground?" Lan Ming turned his head at Qin and asked.
"Hmm! It doesn't matter much but if we go underground, it would take a long time to finish this task. Maybe we should try something else, it's just that I can't think of something." Qin rubbed his chin while thinking for a moment.
"How about let us try?" Yue Bin suddenly intercepted while he was thinking.
"Who are us?" Qin asked with confusion since she was the only one standing out. Yue Bin pointed at Guo Min and Tan Xinyi, saying.
"Currently, we have complete control over our dragon transformation and all three of us have comprehended Power Law. If we work together, we should be able to lift nearby area. But, to do that, you also need to cut it in half." Yue Bin suggested which made everyone surprised.
They didn't expect her plan was to lift the whole land. Although she only said nearby area, it would still be huge considering the number of people underground. There were almost a million of people.
Qin thought for a moment and said "Alright! I will split this land into a portion that would be easy to lift. Then, you three can use the dragon transformation to lift it."
After agreeing to her idea, Qin disappears and appears high on the sky. Everyone instantly changes their gaze at him while he releases his spiritual sense and ask.
"Min, tell me the point where there are no people."
Guo Min nodded his head and released his soul sense to much wider space. After few seconds, Guo Min spoke "You still need to move nearly five miles away."
Qin nodded his head and disappears once again. Now, he was five miles away from his original place but he had gone even higher. Because he noticed this continent was too big for him to cut from shorter distance.
After that, he holds Xiao Lan from the sheath. Unlike before, he now likes using Xiao Lan every single time. And, unlike before, he doesn't need to rely on Xiao Lan for most of the battle.
He starts pouring his sword energy inside Xiao Lan. To cut this continent, he needs one of his strongest strike. He does have one but this strike was something he hasn't used. This was his new creation and this was the perfect opportunity to test it.
He just kept pouring half of his sword energy into the sword. The size of the sword didn't increase but the sword became a lot heavier due to the immense sword energy on the edge. The sword energy was literally dripping out of the sword edge.
After that, he covers his sword Destruction Law. This law was very unique. It creates a purple coating around his sword and this purple coating was the Destruction Law. Originally, he thought it would be red or black but it turned purple when he comprehended it.
Because he didn't let his Destruction Law touch the sword energy, they never met. Sword Energy was inside the sword while Destruction Law was outside. But this wasn't the end. He also released his devil power.
When he erupted his devil power, six old men and the middle-aged man instantly panic. But, his team didn't think or even try to correct them. They didn't care about these old men neither do Qin. So, naturally they don't think they should even try to convince them that Qin was a good person.
Unlike sword energy and Destruction Law, Devil Energy and Destruction Law merged together and formed dark purple coating around the sword but it was four times bigger. Even so, it still didn't end there.
Finally, Qin even added his killing intent or rather, he reached out the killing intent from inside-outside. Not only he merged killing intent with dark purple coating but also merged it with his sword energy. This was a bold move considering how much killing intent can affect Devil Energy.
But, his Destruction Law and Sword Energy were easily holding on against the Killing Intent. Qin took a deep breath and hold the hilt of his sword with both of his hands. He slowly raises his sword and suddenly, a strange domain spread out of his body.
As soon as this domain spread out, everything turned red. The ground became the literal city of dead with the ocean of blood around it. Even the sky got painted in red as the chilling wind blew inside this domain.
"Slaughter Domain!"
"Ultimate Ruthless Sword- Devil's Mercy!"
The next moment, his sword falls down and releases a massive slash. The slash itself was divided into two parts. The outer part was dark purple which contained devil's power and destruction law alongside killing intent.
And, inside part was dark red which consisted of sword energy and killing intent. But, most importantly, while moving down, the slash become larger and larger until it reached from one point of continent to another point of continent.
The slash collided against the ground, grinding the earth into dust while moving down. There was nothing that could block the slash but the deeper it got, the shakier ground became. The sword went to the deepest part until it finally come down from the ground.
Crack! Crack! Bang!
The entire continent got split into 1/5th of its total area.
